The Desert Lark is a remarkably variable and widespread lark species found across the arid and semi-arid regions of North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia. Its plumage closely matches its stony desert habitat.
Where to spot
Widespread in rocky and stony deserts, gravel plains, and wadis across North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, and parts of the Indian subcontinent.
How to spot
Look for it walking or running on open ground, blending in perfectly. Listen for its distinctive, often repetitive, melodic song delivered from a prominent rock or in flight.
When to spot
Observable year-round, active during the cooler parts of the day.
